(MOVIE & DEBATE) I think we can all agree that
Gena Rowlands is the greatest actress currently living.
Love Streams is often described as John Cassavetes at his worst, but I really don't see that argument. Rowlands pulling up at her brother's house in
a taxi full of goats and miniature horses? Rowlands trying to get Seymour Cassel to laugh by
backflipping fully clothed into a swimming pool? What more do you want, people? After the screening, there will be
a debate about this movie's merits. There will also be
free beer. (
